------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-13-10 01:59 ------- Apologies for a) duplicating and b) not being able to locate my duplicate. This happened for me on two systems, both upgraded from 9.1 to 9.2rc2. The simple work-around was to use Mandrake Control Centre to remove samba- client, then to reinstall it. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: In the Mandrake Control Center, when I click on "Setup Samba Mount Points" it loads that configuration module, and then claims that the samba-client package needs to be installed. It then asks if I want to install it. I click on yes and it goes to a dialog that says "Mandatory samba-client package not installed." I opened up a terminal and su'd to root and typed "urpmi samba-client". Urpmi responded with "Everyting already installed." So, 1) MCC does not know samba-client is installed 2) Despite asking about it, MCC will not install the package. I think this may be because the binary of the samba client name changed. In 9.1 I believe it was smbmount. I don't remember exactly what gets installed in 9.2, but I think the name changed. So the tool might need to be updated for this. Just perahps a place to start looking. I marked this as critical, because the networking aspects of the distribution have always been touted and I think it's important that this gets fixed.
